South Korea produced a dramatic final-end comeback as they scored three points at the death to secure the bronze medal at the World Women's Curling Championships.
Kim Min-ji's team had trailed 5-4 after the ninth end but they overturned the deficit in the tenth to take the final podium spot in Denmark.
The match went back and fourth as the lead changed hands five times in the opening eight ends.
Japan, led by Seina Nakajima, looked to have been in prime position for a medal as they grabbed two points the ninth end to give them a 5-4 lead.
But Korea's late flurry of points meant they were the ones who finished third overall in the competition in Silkeborg.
